Hi Lain,

As Jeff indicated, this newsgroup is for Microsoft Access. However, I was curious, so I did a
little research. Here is something I found at http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/331025.html

Configuring the browser to open PDF files in an Acrobat window


If you want the browser to open PDF files in a separate Acrobat window, configure the browser to
use Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application. Then, when you select a PDF file in Internet
Explorer or AOL, the browser opens the PDF file in an Acrobat window instead of the browser
window.


To configure the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader to open PDF files:

1. Quit Internet Explorer or AOL.

2. Start Acrobat or Adobe Reader.

3. Choose Edit > Preferences.

4. Select Internet in the list on the left.

5. Deselect Display PDF in Browser, and click OK.

6. Restart Internet Explorer or AOL.


Note: The next time you select a link to a PDF file, the browser may prompt you to open or save
the file. If you choose to open the file, the browser opens the file in the helper application
that you specified. If you choose to save the file, the browser downloads the file to the hard
disk.


For more information about the general preferences in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader, refer to the
Acrobat Help.
